What does code P2AA0 mean?

Q: What does code P2AA0 mean?

Alternative Fuel Return Line Valve Control Circuit Low. P2AA0 indicates that the powertrain control module has detected a low-voltage condition on the control circuit for the alternative fuel return line valve, which is used on vehicles that run on fuels such as compressed natural gas or propane. The computer expects to see a certain voltage range when the valve is commanded, but the signal is lower than expected, suggesting a short to ground, a faulty valve, or a wiring problem.
